You surely heard about the terrible accident, which happened near Luzern at the bginning of this week. In the past few days I've been busy with this, helping and supportin the injured and their families. I received a lot of warm feedback and thank yous.
I would like to forward the thank you's to the group of volunteers who have worked tirelessly together with me. Without them I would not have been able to organize all of the help we were able to offer. Thank you to Uri, Goren, Dana, Sagit, Naaman, Pnina, and to all of the others, who have offered and keep offering their help.
The media reporter of the Chabad headquarters in New York wanted to be updated on the story and summed it up in his own article, which you can read here.
Swiss TV was also interested in the fact, that we as Jews are helping the victims of a tragedy, who are not even Jewish. This is something, which for me, as a Jew, is so simple. If we can, we help. I used the opportunity to pass on a message of belief, love and hope through the TV medium. click here to watch.
I pray to G-d, that we should always have the strength to be able to help, and may it only be for happy occasions in the future.
Shabbat Shalom to you all,
Rabbi Chaim
